Chapter 1879 Arrogant Your Prejudice (22)

"What? The money is still only a small part of it? Most of the money is invested in new businesses?"

The huge surprise comes too quickly. Not to mention a woman like Mrs. Bennett, who is not very scheming, even a wise and calm person will be unable to recover for a while.

Mrs. Bennett was in a state of vain and dreamy—unreal, too unreal!

The previous second was she still the poor squire wife who brags about how rich her son-in-law was, but the next second was she becoming a rich lady with tens of thousands of pounds?

What's even more terrible is that I originally thought that 30,000 pounds was all the wealth, but my younger daughter surprised her again.

She is worthy of being the most similar daughter to her. The cute Mrs. Wickham not only earned her a lot of gold, but also got a "gold mine" that can produce every year.

Although Mrs. Bennett still doesn't know what the business her younger daughter mentioned in the letter, with her first two successful experiences and a real check of 30,000 pounds, Mrs. Bennett has now trusted her younger daughter.

"Lydia is so capable and has an extremely outstanding vision. If she can choose a business, she will definitely make a fortune!"

Mrs. Bennet said excitedly, "Just like it was before. We just gave her a few hundred pounds, but she overturned the hundreds more than ten times. Then, she did not rush to give us the dividends, but took all the money to buy a boat-"

While saying this, Mrs. Bennett glanced at Miss Bingley.

Don't think she didn't hear Miss Bingley's sneer just now.

Yes, the money they gave to Mrs. Wickham was only a few hundred pounds.

If you want to invest in a big business, it is simply a dream.

But the problem is that their favorite Mrs. Wickham is so outstanding that she did not directly invest the money, but instead made the original accumulation of capital.

Mrs. Wickham eventually used the money to buy ships and do ocean trade, not the initial few hundred pounds, but several thousand or even tens of thousands!

The total investment was relatively large. When the Wickhams and his wife returned successfully and earned huge wealth, the women of their Bennett family could get so much dividends.

Just like now, after making money, Mrs. Wickham did not use all the money to distribute dividends, but only distributed a small part of it, and continued to invest the rest in the new business.

Wait, a small part = 30,000 pounds?

So how much are they really worth now?

Mrs. Bennett's mind was full of flying pound bills, and her brain was completely in trouble. She couldn't count it!

In fact, not to mention that Mrs. Bennett has no idea what she is, even Marie, who is soaked in the sea of ​​books all day long, is a little dazed.

She also invested money in the "Lydia" business.

Although it is not as good as mothers and sisters, it is also worth 100 pounds.

There is nothing we can do about this. The Bennett family is not a wealthy person, and Mr. Bennett's pocket money for his daughters is not high.

Other sisters would use money to buy clothes, hats, etc., but Mary was not keen on these, but liked to read.

And buying books is also very expensive.

In addition, Jane, Elizabeth and others occasionally make some money by their intelligence. The amount is not large, but they can also have an input.

But Mary didn't know what she did. She had no beauty or talent, so she could only set herself up a person who loved reading.

Scholars, regardless of ancient and modern times, both in China and abroad, are actually somewhat inexplicably noble. It seems that scholars should be noble and elegant, without being involved in the world.

Besides, Mary's purpose of reading is not very pure. She doesn't really like reading, but she really has no other expertise and can only use reading to package herself.

She did not really understand the principles in the book, but instead learned the arrogance and arrogance of scholars thoroughly.

She doesn't like the ignorance and frivolity of Katie and Lydia's two little sisters, and she also hates her mother's handsome and rich bachelor chattering about every day.

She is so fresh and refined that she is not so persistent about money, at least on the surface.

Therefore, Mary did not actively make some money like other sisters. This directly led to her not having much savings in her hands.

He was able to take out a hundred pounds and hand it over to the "Lydia" who he didn't like very much. To be honest, Marie herself didn't know what was wrong at that time, as if she was dizzy.

The next day afterwards, before Mr. Bennett could expose the "scam" of the Wickhams and his wife, Mary regretted it one after another.

But at this moment, Mary was still regretting that she regretted not having reservations, but should have handed over all her money to "Lydia".

If she could invest all the money she had on hand, the dividends she received shouldn't be too small.

Even if they can't compare to their mother, Jane and Elizabeth can still be more than Katie.

However, Mary's sad discovery was that she was another sister she didn't like very much, and the money she gave to "Lydia" was fifty pounds more than her!

Mary is a well-reader. Even if she only learned a little bit of a superficial study, she still understands math at least.

Although she and Katie's "investment" are only fifty pounds apart, she is sure that the dividends they can get are tens of thousands of pounds apart.

Tens of thousands of pounds, a number that Mary dared not think of in the past.

With this money, even if she is ordinary in appearance, mediocre in temperament, or even introverted in personality, she is still a handsome and young man chasing her.

Mary didn't forget that Longborn also had a poor Miss Jin, but because she had a dowry of thousands of pounds, Wickham immediately gave up the outstanding Elizabeth and turned to pursue Miss Jin.

Now, she, Marie Bennett, has more than a few thousand pounds.

Her investment is less than half of her mothers, but half of the £30,000, or even one-third, is not much!

Not to mention others, just Miss Bingley, who kept her dowry all day long, only had a dowry of 20,000 pounds.

Moreover, my mother and Jane also said that these dividends were only a small part, and she would continue to distribute dividends in the future.

When Mary was so excited that her ordinary face shone brightly when she thought of those heart-warming numbers.

She has money and finally has money. She doesn't have to worry about her being kicked out by her cousin Collins after her father passed away.

She has no beauty or talent. Once she is kicked out of the house, she may have to rely on her two sisters to live, or simply run to the monastery.

Although she looks a little nerdy and boring, she doesn't want to be a weird and poor old virgin.

She wants to become a talented woman, and she also wants to marry a cute young man that both her parents like.
